Your best holidays or concert ever

In juny of 2015 i went with my family to Cusco, Perú. It was winter holidays, but although it was winter it wasn´t cold and it was actually pretty hot. We went for 9 days. The first day we went out to see the city, museums and get to know the place a little better, but it was a little late and we ended just eating dinner and walking for a while to see where we could go the next day. At the next day we got up early in the morning (5 A.M) and went by bus to sacsayhuaman, which is near cusco. It was a real nice place to be, but we left at lunch time. We went back to cusco and ate at some restourant near the center of the city. The gastronomy there is actually quite different from ours, but i found it actually better, so i enjoyed every lunch and dinner. When we ended, we went to the museum of pre-columbian art, which i found actually nice because there aren´t to many museums of art and it´s always nice to see the art of different cultures and periods. We spent a few days doing things like that, but the reason we went to Perú was to see machu picchu and our trip to that place started the fifth day.
We went by train to aguas calientes which is closer to machu picchu than cusco and spent the night there. I´ve never traveled by train before so it was a new and nice experience to me. We stayed there for 1 day and then the next day in the morning we went by train to the city of machu picchu. That trip by train to the city of machu picchu was awesome. It was a long trip but the views were extraordinary. We ate at machu picchu city and then we took a bus that head off to machu picchu. The place was simply amazing. I loved every moment i was up there. There is no much to describe because it´s actually something that you have to live and be there to understand why many people describe the place with words like amazing or beautiful. We also went up the huayna picchu, which is the mountain next to machu picchu. That was one of the best experiences to me. Being there in the nature, so high and in another state of mind. I felt awesome, like i was more connected with myself. After expending the whole day there we started the trip back to cusco. At Cusco we spent the last night and i left the hotel and went by a walk to see the city for the last time. I hate when someone asks me which is the "best" experience i´ve had
travelling because i wouldn´t say one is the best, but i have to say this was one of the best holidays i´ve ever had.
